Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Received as G. angustifolia, (Leach Bot. Garden) though it's obviously a hybrid. But what a bright color - I simply couldn't resist! A good grower and bloomer with large, upward facing trumpets. The main blooming season is spring but they can re-bloom throughout summer and fall. The leathery foliage is evergreen. For any good garden soil, needs light shade in hotter regions. 2 3/8" square - 3 3/4" deep pots.
